LTE/SAE Engineering Overview

Duration: 2 Days Course Code: LT3600

Overview:

Since its introduction at Release 99 of the 3GPP technical standards UMTS has evolved considerably, especially with the introduction ofHSPA. 3GPP Release 8 specifications introduce the Evolved Packet System (EPS) – the next very important evolutionary step for UMTSnetworks. The EPS has emerged from the 3GPP projects to define the Long Term Evolution (LTE) of the access network and SystemArchitecture Evolution (SAE) for the core network. This course provides an insight into the design aims, structure and operation of both the newradio access network, the E-UTRAN, and the new core network, the EPC. This wide ranging two-day course comprises eight sections. Thecourse begins with an overview of LTE and SAE as a whole. This leads into more detailed treatment of the radio access network, its interfacesand key protocols. The OFDM concept is then developed and related to an outline of the LTE air interface structure and operation. The coursethen turns to the evolved packet core starting with the architecture and interfaces in the EPC. This is then developed in the emaining sections,which summarize the key protocols and procedures used in the EPC for connection establishment and for mobility management.

Target Audience:

The adoption of the EPS is an essential long-term evolutionary path for many network operators. It is therefore vitally important that engineersand technical staff have the advance knowledge necessary to plan for its introduction. This Wray Castle course is designed to provideengineering and technical management staff with a technical preview of the technologies and techniques employed in the E-UTRAN and theEPC, and to explain how they operate together as an EPS network. This course is also very useful for engineers working in areas related toUMTS and EPS operation. This includes database management, billing, service developers, base station management, Government securityor forensic specialists, service developers, legal professionals supporting operators or local authorities, various support staff and those intechnical management roles.

Objectives:

On completion of this course the student will be able to: List the key protocols used for signalling and traffic transmission

within the all-IP infrastructure and justify their inclusion

Outline the architecture and interfaces of the E-UTRAN and the

EPC Explain the procedures for the establishment of EPS bearers and

outline their relationship with the service data flow

Characterize the performance capabilities of an LTE/SAE system

Outline the QoS concepts employed by the EPC and relate these to

Describe the E-UTRA protocol stack and assign layer functions

to the correct network entities Potential services and EPS bearers

Outline the general structure of the E-UTRA physical layer List the options available to support real-time services in an EPC

Outline the functions of the E-UTRA uplink and downlink physical Environment and for interworking with dedicated circuit-switched

channels infrastructure

Outline the properties of an EPS bearer Outline the connection establishment procedures for real time and

nonreal- time services as well as resource management and

Identify the set of network elements and interfaces that comprise mobility

an EPC and describe their functions

Management procedures for LTE/SAE

Prerequisites:

Students attending this course are assumed to have a good

understanding of legacy 2G and 3G cellular networks. Some

knowledge of radio systems, common transmission technologies

and service delivery platforms would be an advantage.
